Eastman, E Claybaugh Coach Charles Dreas '69 Tennis Team with victories over Central, Cascia Hall, and Washington High School finished with a very respectable 3-7 dual record. The five inexperienced underclassmen helped take up the slack to handle the tough Comet schedule. The underclassmen have left a great many impressions of what is to come. Player Coach Tom Wilson, who hap- pened to be the stalwart of the team, sacri- ficed his own game in order to teach the un- derclassmen the finer points of the game. The efforts of the tennis team are to be commended by all students. Traditionally without student support, the members of this year's team were determined to be winners. Without the assistance of an adult coach, there was no playing around and always an air of determination. With this attitude, the future seems very bright. The netinen should receive the greatest of praise for the work they put into this year's team.
